Our Take

The Neal Morse Band's latest offering, The Grand Experiment, is a wild rollercoaster of prog-rock goodness that will leave you both dazzled and slightly confused. From the moment you hit play, you're thrust into a world of intricate melodies, complex time signatures, and enough keyboard solos to make Rick Wakeman blush.

Morse's vocals soar effortlessly over the epic instrumentation, weaving tales of love, loss, and existential crises in a way that only a seasoned prog-rocker can. The band's musicianship is top-notch, with each member bringing their A-game to the table and creating a sound that is both technically impressive and emotionally resonant.

Tracks like "Waterfall" and "Alive Again" showcase the band at their most bombastic, with soaring guitar solos, thunderous drum fills, and enough key changes to make even the most seasoned music theorist break a sweat. But it's the title track, "The Grand Experiment," that truly steals the show, with its haunting melodies and thought-provoking lyrics.

Overall, The Grand Experiment is a triumph of modern progressive rock, blending the best elements of the genre with a fresh, contemporary twist. Whether you're a die-hard prog fanatic or just looking for something a bit out of the ordinary, this album is sure to keep you entertained from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to take a musical journey unlike any other.
